In our research and educational field, the water movements that occur in river basins are analyzed from both the aspects of water quantity and that of water quality. We are also researching the mitigation of disasters by flooding and drought, management of water resources and environment, as well as irrigation and drainage in rural areas.

The following are some of our main research topics: development of precise and reliable estimates of annual river fluxes (loads) based on low-frequent water quality monitoring, quantification of relationships between annual river loads and their land use-anthropogenic activities, effective use of water resources in foreign countries such as the Nile River in Sudan, and estimation of the actual application of organic fertilizers for sustainable nitrogen cycle in dairy watershed.
